The following year, he served as an appointed member of the Governor’s Commission on Aging. Robert began practicing law in Hilo in 1980.

After a serious motorcycle accident on the Mamalahoa Highway left me with significant injuries and mounting medical bills, I was overwhelmed. Finding Robert Marx was the best decision I could have made. His deep roots in the community, with his family here since 1921, gave me immediate confidence; this wasn't just a case to him, but helping a fellow island resident. Robert’s quarter-century of experience in personal injury law was evident from our first meeting. He meticulously explained the process, managed all communications with the insurance companies (who were notoriously difficult), and secured all necessary medical documentation. What truly stood out was his compassionate yet fiercely professional approach. He never treated me like just another file. In the end, Robert negotiated a settlement that far exceeded my expectations, covering all my medical treatments, lost wages, and providing for my future needs. His expertise and genuine care are unmatched. I cannot recommend him highly enough.
